Fox News ^ | June 06 2019 | Dom Calicchio

The news – plus barbs from social media trolls and other critics -- may be too much for CNN’s Don Lemon to bear much longer.

The host of “CNN Tonight” told an audience in New York City on Thursday that the current “level of toxicity” in society – which he attributed to the Trump presidency – has him questioning whether he’ll still be on the air when the 2020 presidential election rolls around, according to reports.

“I don’t know if it’s worth this level of toxicity,” the 53-year-old Lemon said about continuing in his current position, the Daily Beast reported.

Is it the President’s “toxic masculinity” that bothers him so much, or is he just having trouble realizing that he and he alone is his own problem?

TV is not the place to get your news these days. It is a cesspool of secular nonsense disguised as respectability. Trump came along back in the 80’s saying things had to change. And folks like Oprah welcomed him because they knew the game is rigged. Pope Leo XIII said back in 1904 that he had a vision that the devil would be trying to destroy Christianity over the next 100 years. Well, it looks like the jig is up.

Reads like Lemon’s head is on the chopping block. Severely low ratings will eventually do that. When they needed a clown, he was there. Perhaps the circus is moving on?

He is stressed because he hates trump. He expresses this to his audience. His audience shrinks. He is told he needs to get his ratings up. His job is threatened. He blames it on Trump.

Lemon can't draw 1 million viewers so he might not be on the air in 2020.

cnn is sucking wind so bad that the entire line up should be scrapped, starting with zucker and his henchmen.

He doesn’t have to live in a toxic society if he kills himself.

There was a woman recently who figured a way out to living in a world with Trump.
